Aspects of the present disclosure relate to emergency evacuation. An emergency can be detected at an emergency location. A type of the emergency can be determined. Prospective safe locations proximate to the emergency location can be identified. A safety rating of each prospective safe location can be determined based on the type of emergency. A number of at-risk individuals at the emergency location can be determined. A subset of drop-off locations of the prospective safe locations that have a safety rating that satisfies a safety threshold can be selected, the subset of drop-off locations satisfying a size limit required for the number of at-risk individuals. A set of autonomous vehicles required for the number of at-risk individuals can then be determined. The set of autonomous vehicles can be deployed to the emergency location.
